Other voyages appear. They may take place on a rolling path or a sheer rock face. Some tried hanggliding. Others chose more conventional flying and spent a semester abroad. Eagle walkers went 200 miles to raise money. Norman Keats' Blue Star compass took up its place outside the LRC. AH of these are special voyages, part of UWSP.

Voyage—(voi-ij), n. An act or instance of traveling. Under this broad definition, many things can be considered a voyage. At UWSP, the voyages may be as simple as the trek to Collins Classroom Center when it is 30 degrees below zero. Or it may be the long road to Daytona for Spring Break. A freshman voyages into the Residence Halls for the first time. A sophomore maps out the itinerary of their major. Juniors get to leave the now-familiar Halls and roam for their own housing. Is $475 plus utilities too much? Seniors face the difficult expedition into the job market. Once again, the questions focus on travel: Do I relocate? Do I move home? Do I go to grad school?

SEMESTER ABROAD IN ENGLAND On August 22, 1983, forty-eight green American students and three leaders boarded Iceland Air at O'Hare International Airport on a four-month 2 journey. Anxieties turned to excitement as we flew through seven time zones and landed many hours later in Luxembourg. We were really on our way! In the next month we raced across the continent, seeing things that we could have only dreamed of a year ago. We became so good at figuring out different exchange rates that it seemed hard to believe we hadn't been doing it all our lives. It was all the pictures, stories, and more. Just ask any one of us ... if you can find us. Lisa Gay 9
